I spoke to the director of the school in Gwangju (for LCI Kids Club) and he said that there are other LCI Kids club schools that aren't associated with their school. Also I've experienced no hesitation from the director (who is foreign too) in answering all my questions and he's sent me pics and the contract looks good. I'd be getting paid 2.1 million won a month direct deposit and I'd work from 2-9pm with just 2 classes and an hour break. and the other guy that was placed there by the agency that recruited me just re-newed his contract. Any thoughts?

Yeah, this does not sound real, only two classes. If these are not 2.5 hour classes then Ghandi runs this hagwon. Most pack them in with maybe an hour break accumulated if you count the 5-min between classes.

If anyone else has the 2-class deal then speak up so the rest of do not get shafted with 8.
